Have sprints/ +attend and +register default to start/end dates+times

Bug Description

Getting people to sign up for a sprint at:

  https://launchpad.net/sprints/ubucon-sevilla/+register
  https://launchpad.net/sprints/ubucon-sevilla/+attend

requires that the user enter the date+time details. There is on indication to the format of these boxes and an error is raised if the boxes aren't filled in.

The common case is that somebody will always sign up for the full length of the event/sprint. Ideally Launchpad should pre-populate these two boxes with the start and end times for the full event so that the user can just click '[OK]'.

If you pre-populated the boxes, the user would have the added advantage of knowing the format to modify (eg. simply adjust the day of month up from '10' to '11' if you're scheduled to arrive a day late.
